A Tangent: Monogamy

Lover's Locks from my time in Paris :)

Today I listened to a story on NPR about the study of animal relationships. Apparently mammals are not inherently monogamous. That explains the foundation for the mythstat that claims fifty percent of marriages end in divorce. Monogamy is unnatural to us...so why does it still happen and why do we all want it?
Maybe we're selfish, possessive: I like that that other human and it'll be mine. Forever.

Love is great. And I don't get it.
